Pvt. David Lewis was an Army recruit at Ft. Dix. In February of 1976 he became ill and eventually died from what was identified as a strain of Swine Flu. The same strain that originated in the South US and was carried overseas by American troops to WWI Europe and killed over 500,000 in the early 1900's. A huge effort was undertaken in 1976 to mass produce a vaccine, panic ensued and the government stepped in with a "great cure"....in the end Pvt. Lewis was the only confirmed direct casualty of the flu itself becasue of containment methods by the Army. While the vaccine that was given to the US population wound up claiming the lives of 100's of elderly and was suspended mid-way though becasue of the rush to get the vaccine to people over testing it properly. Don't forget the media's memory only goes to the last commercial break...the swine flu is nothing new, and it won't be going away anytime soon.
